Hello Loyal Tim Fans!!!

I am pleased to report that Tim continues as usual. Well maybe I should not be so pleased to report that, but I guess it is better than doing worse.
So here is a poll for you. Should Tim become a minimalist? Kinda a dumb thing to ask isn’t it? Sort of the type of thing that should start from the heart and of passion. But here is the deal: I have been sitting in my apartment bored and reading this Blue Like Jazz nonsense from Donald Miller. Not really nonsense, its actually quite refreshing, I just say "nonsense" because I think it is silly to read a book try to fashion yourself after the writer who has arrived at where he is after many hours of soul searching and journey with God. But there I am and while I was reading, it occurred to me that my life is crowded by a bunch of superfluous stuff, self-imposed obligations, and urges. For instance it is not unusual for my entire floor to be taken up with clothing I have not worn for at least a month. I live in an apartment in which two rooms (not including my bedroom) are taken up with junk. I live alone and have plenty of space the family across form me lives in the exact same apartment but houses five (of course they are Asian but stop being predigest).
Truth be told I like my stuff and my space. I just think it would maybe help my perspective or something to slim down a little. I really don’t need or even use a lot of the stuff that I have, I say "have" because it sounds really lame to say you "own" an entire bowl full of shoe laces, or twenty half used bingo dabbers. I heard a speaker say that youth workers are notorious junk collectors and impulsive shoppers (you just never know when something will come in handy for an event or lesson) but this is ridicules.
Also I’ve kinda always wanted to be one of those hippie types who wear whatever they want and look cool in the way that it looks like they don’t even care what they are wearing but it is still somehow trendy. The type that seem totally comfortable wherever they are, that accept whatever happens with a interested smile and nod, and just are… Cool. And I don’t think that their apartments look like mine.
Anyway I definitely think this falls in the random rambling category, because on a different day I’m sure I would agree with a lot of you that most of this is nonsense. The gist is I want a change in lifestyle. Not a change of job I love my job, just a change in what I do with my life around my job. (Yah I said around my job because lets face it a single dude in Ponoka, if his life does not revolve around his job he is either crazy or something much worse and I am definitely neither)anyway kids have fun and take it easy. Love ya
